Dan Shen Sect.
Ye Qiu was quite surprised by Gao Wanli’s arrival.
He couldn’t help but ask, "Brother Gao, you should be a candidate for the Sect Leader by now, right?"
Gao Wanli replied, "If it weren’t for you, Brother Fantian, I would have missed this opportunity. How could I ever disappoint you, Brother Fantian?"
The two continued walking deep into the valley. This was Gao Wanli’s first ti inside Dan Shen Sect, and his expression was akin to Hua Wuji’s earlier reaction, amazed by the dense spiritual energy within Dan Shen Sect.
However, the real surprise ca later when Gao Wanli saw the four spiritual dicine gardens, and he was montarily lost in astonishnt.
"Brother Fantian... if I’m not mistaken, these... these are all spiritual dicines, right," Gao Wanli said haltingly, truly not expecting such a quantity of spiritual dicine within Dan Shen Sect.
"Brother Gao is correct; these spiritual dicines and the one I gave you last ti all ca from the relics," Ye Qiu smiled, casually explaining.
Gao Wanli’s heart was deeply shaken. It seed that no one who ventured into the relics had gained as much as Ye Qiu.
"Brother Fantian, I admire you more and more," Gao Wanli clasped his fists again. With the number of spiritual dicines in Dan Shen Sect, it would seem the three major sects are outmatched — a full forty-plus spiritual dicines!
After a period of amazent, Gao Wanli revealed the purpose of his visit.
Ye Qiu looked at the spiritual dicine seeds in the bag before him, pondering the gesture of goodwill from Qing Yun Sect.
Spirit Grass seeds are valuable to any sect, not to ntion spiritual dicine seeds. Even the three major sects likely have few, if any, because spiritual dicine is rare, and its seeds are even rarer.
Yet it was this precious spiritual dicine seed that the Qing Yun Sect Leader sent Gao Wanli to deliver to Dan Shen Sect.
This signaled a desire from Qing Yun Sect to establish good relations with Dan Shen Sect, at least a gesture of goodwill; otherwise, gifting spiritual dicine seeds would co at a significant cost.
"Brother Gao, please thank your Sect Leader for . If there’s anything I can help with, feel free to ask, especially in alchemy, where I have so experience," Ye Qiu said.
Gao Wanli was stirred. Before coming, he already knew the Sect Leader’s intention to ally with Dan Shen Sect, but Gao Wanli felt that seeking Ye Qiu with this objective was sowhat unjust, as he represented Qing Yun Sect, not himself.
However, hearing Ye Qiu’s response, Gao Wanli realized Ye Qiu must have accepted this gift partly because of him.
Why was Gao Wanli so sure? Because Dan Shen Sect was no longer lacking in spiritual dicine; in a few years, they would mature, and they would have many spiritual dicine seeds then. Dan Shen Sect was no longer impoverished; its quantity of spiritual dicine had likely surpassed the three major sects.
Ye Qiu could have refused; Dan Shen Sect truly didn’t lack spiritual dicine.
"Brother Fantian, I owe you more and more, and I’m afraid I can never repay it all," Gao Wanli said.
"Haha... What is Brother Gao saying? Isn’t it true that more friends an more paths? Brother Gao need not think too much," Ye Qiu laughed.
He agreed partly because of Gao Wanli, but it wasn’t the complete reason, just a minor factor. The goodwill from Qing Yun Sect was a positive sign. Although Qing Yun Sect’s help wasn’t substantial, the significance was not small. This ant Dan Shen Sect had opened a breach among the small sects, proving that everything done before was correct; otherwise, why would Qing Yun Sect be so quick to show goodwill?
Gao Wanli’s mission was completed. After chatting with Ye Qiu for a while, he left Dan Shen Sect.
Within three days, people from Qing Yun Sect secretly delivered so Spirit Grass, hoping Ye Qiu could help refine so pills.
As he had accepted the spiritual dicine seeds, Ye Qiu naturally wouldn’t refuse. In just an hour, he delivered the pills to Qing Yun Sect.
When the Qing Yun Sect Leader opened it and took a sniff, he was deeply shaken, delighted that this move was the right choice.
dium-grade pills!
Just with Spirit Grass alone, they could refine dium-grade pills. Dan Shen Sect’s alchemy techniques were indeed impressive.
He could now vaguely understand why those dium-level sects were keen to support Dan Shen Sect; it must be related to Dan Shen Sect’s alchemy that could produce high-quality pills, an irresistible allure for martial artists.
"It seems my move was tily. If Dan Shen Sect can truly rise and revive, perhaps Qing Yun Sect can ascend from a small sect to a dium, or even large, sect,"
The Qing Yun Sect Leader thought ambitiously. At this mont, the image of Gao Wanli flashed in his mind: "It seems Sect Leader Ye is indeed honorable and didn’t undervalue Gao Wanli for being from a small sect. Instead, he treated him like a friend; this is an opportunity."
"If Gao Wanli becos Qing Yun Sect Leader, and with Dan Shen Sect backing us, tsk tsk..." The Sect Leader envisioned, although whether Dan Shen Sect could truly rise to beco one of the top sects in Qingfeng County was yet to be seen.
...
Every day, performing a round of Cloud Rain Technique, the spiritual dicines absorbed the spiritual energy droplets like fish and kept ripening.
Especially in the spiritual dicine garden before the wooden hut, the colors gradually unified into gold, with small heads drooping at their tops, densely covered with seeds.
The four black dogs kept a close watch over these spiritual dicines, sensing that they were about to mature. Then, they could transform without maintaining their current forms.
Because of the connection between the tabby cat and black dog, the chubby Jin Xiaoshun couldn’t get near the spiritual dicine garden no matter what. Finally, he gave up and continued managing the servants, cultivating other slopes in the valley, and began constructing pavilions, gradually restoring Dan Shen Sect’s forr glory.
Wu Yaizi, without any responsibilities, spent every day basking in the sun or strolling in the valley, feeling great. When tired, he would lie on a chair and take a good nap, being the most leisurely person in Dan Shen Sect.
Hua Wuji was extrely busy. As Dan Shen Sect’s first elder, the heavy responsibility of communicating with other sects fell entirely on his shoulders. Ye Qiu just focused on refining so pills, leaving everything else to Hua Wuji.
Ye Qiu trusted Hua Wuji greatly, believing he could revive Dan Shen Sect, planning perfectly and effectively handling issues with other sects.
Hua Wuji frequently visited various sects, making it so that Hua Wuhun would return ho each ti unable to find Hua Wuji and wonder about what kept Hua Wuji so busy.
"This kid neither retreats to cultivate nor stays at ho; I don’t know where he’s off fooling around every day," Hua Wuhun thought she needed to mind her wayward brother more, not knowing he was busy with tasks for reviving Dan Shen Sect.
Several miles outside the scope of Qingfeng County, figures moved rapidly. They were clad in black, revealing only their eyes, and soon stopped, gazing intently at the ancient city walls of Qingfeng County.
"Qingfeng County..." a black-clad individual muttered, and in a flash, several figures vanished like swallows into the air.
